(IoT), 4K video and 5G are coming and will In this brochure you’ll find details on the many tax network infrastructures with even more technology features in Cisco ASR 9000 Series traffic. Legacy technologies, processes, routers and third-generation line cards that service operations and network architectures make recharging your network for cloud-scale can’t handle these new services and volumes. possible. Also included are specific use cases They’re too inflexible, inefficient, complex, that benefit from the move to cloud-scale. You’ll costly and lack scale. Networks that do not read about new capabilities enabled by IOS XR retool in preparation for digitization will lose out and our third-generation line cards when they to competitors. You need to retool your network are deployed to support business VPN services infrastructure in preparation to meet these at the edge, residential services, mobile growing demands. backhaul, Data Center Interconnect (DCI), and Internet transit/peering.

Brochure Cisco public Cisco IOS XR Software: Cloud-Scale innovations Cisco innovation: Network Cisco IOS XR Software provides an array of features representing over 15 years of use and development, Services Orchestrator including cloud-scale capabilities. Cisco IOS XR cloud-scale features include integration with structured, Cisco Network Services Orchestrator data model-driven, high-performance APIs so you can move beyond CLIs. A comprehensive set of (NSO) lets you deliver services faster and YANG-based configuration and operational data models let you control the rich feature set of the OS. more easily to your customers through There is support for native, OpenConfig and IETF models. The YANG modeling language is optimized for network automation. network devices with many tools and utilities. Encoding is decoupled from the model so you can deploy with data encoded in JSON, XML or Google Protocol Buffers (GPB) format. Transport is also decoupled What can NSO help you do? from the choice of encoding for further flexibility. You have the flexibility to use NETCONF, RESTCONF or Google RPC (gRPC) for encoding. Additionally, the Yang Development Kit (YDK) is provided, letting your • Drastically reduce the time to on-board developers auto-generate model-driven APIs from any Yang model for Python
